Armi Horowitz will 14 00:00:49,640 --> 00:00:53,800 Speaker 3: explain what that's all about.

Our high school teacher's helpful advice for the 18 00:01:05,120 --> 00:01:08,680 Speaker 3: Iranian regime on how to assassinate Trump. 19 00:01:09,520 --> 00:01:13,320 Speaker 4: Just go straight for our jugular, the White House obviously 20 00:01:14,440 --> 00:01:17,960 Speaker 4: the capital. I know those are like very well protected. 21 00:01:18,319 --> 00:01:21,520 Speaker 4: Have you ever heard of a place called moral Laga. 22 00:01:23,040 --> 00:01:26,640 Speaker 3: Seriously, But let's start with the Nationals, who today have 23 00:01:26,760 --> 00:01:30,880 Speaker 3: a new leader, Queensland Senator Matt Cannavan, who's become the 24 00:01:30,959 --> 00:01:34,520 Speaker 3: first ever National to lead from the Senate. He beat 25 00:01:34,640 --> 00:01:38,160 Speaker 3: Kevin Hogan and Bridget Mackenzie in a party room ballot 26 00:01:38,200 --> 00:01:42,600 Speaker 3: this morning. Victorian MP Darren Chester was also elected the 27 00:01:42,640 --> 00:01:46,800 Speaker 3: party's new deputy leader. It was Canaban following the announcement 28 00:01:46,840 --> 00:01:47,600 Speaker 3: this afternoon. 29 00:01:48,520 --> 00:01:52,120 Speaker 5: We need to have more Australian farming, more Australian manufacturing, 30 00:01:52,320 --> 00:01:55,520 Speaker 5: more Australian jobs. We need to have more Australian everything. 31 00:01:55,560 --> 00:01:57,840 Speaker 5: We need to manifest a hyper Australia here. We need 32 00:01:57,880 --> 00:02:00,640 Speaker 5: to go hyper Australia for our country. And this government 33 00:02:00,680 --> 00:02:04,400 Speaker 5: continuing now to act like everything is fine while our 34 00:02:04,400 --> 00:02:08,400 Speaker 5: country burns is not acceptable for the Australian people. So 35 00:02:08,520 --> 00:02:11,880 Speaker 5: all the promise I give and gave to our party 36 00:02:11,960 --> 00:02:14,360 Speaker 5: room and to all Australians out there, is that I 37 00:02:14,400 --> 00:02:17,760 Speaker 5: will now not rest to fight for our nation, to 38 00:02:17,800 --> 00:02:20,040 Speaker 5: get back, to use our resources, to fight for the 39 00:02:20,040 --> 00:02:23,240 Speaker 5: Australian people, to put our country first. And I'm very, 40 00:02:23,360 --> 00:02:25,800 Speaker 5: very proud to lead this wonderful team in the Nationals 41 00:02:25,840 --> 00:02:27,040 Speaker 5: Party in that pursuit. 42 00:02:28,160 --> 00:02:31,440 Speaker 3: Joining me now is News Called senior writer Patrick Carlyon 43 00:02:31,680 --> 00:02:36,240 Speaker 3: and the Institute of Public Affairs senior fellow Colleen Harkin. Patrick, Colleen, 44 00:02:36,320 --> 00:02:38,480 Speaker 3: Great to see you both. I'll start with you Patrick. 45 00:02:38,840 --> 00:02:43,120 Speaker 3: Matt Canavan has set out there his hyper Australian vision. 46 00:02:43,720 --> 00:02:46,679 Speaker 3: Do you think he's the person to bring the troubled 47 00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:51,440 Speaker 3: coalition closer together and confront the threat of an increasingly 48 00:02:51,560 --> 00:02:52,519 Speaker 3: popular one nation. 49 00:02:54,320 --> 00:02:58,240 Speaker 6: Look, he faces a few battles, Caroline, obviously from labor, 50 00:02:58,320 --> 00:03:00,960 Speaker 6: from the Teals. The biggest bat is going to be 51 00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:06,080 Speaker 6: one nation. Whether he can be a legitimate alternative to 52 00:03:06,639 --> 00:03:10,400 Speaker 6: the votes that they have stolen so amazingly over the 53 00:03:10,480 --> 00:03:14,360 Speaker 6: past few months. And look, he can be his authentic self. 54 00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:17,400 Speaker 6: As you said, he's a conservative, he believes in things, 55 00:03:17,600 --> 00:03:20,519 Speaker 6: he knows what he's about, and there won't be any 56 00:03:20,560 --> 00:03:24,480 Speaker 6: sort of mucking about on what he thinks and what 57 00:03:24,520 --> 00:03:25,959 Speaker 6: he's going to say. And he tried to sort of 58 00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:29,920 Speaker 6: separate the Nationals from one nation. He talked about uniting 59 00:03:29,960 --> 00:03:32,720 Speaker 6: Australia rather than dividing it. And I think we'll hear 60 00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:34,840 Speaker 6: more and more of that kind of rhetoric from him. 61 00:03:34,960 --> 00:03:36,400 Speaker 6: In the coming days and weeks. 62 00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:40,120 Speaker 3: The other thing we've heard a lot of lately from 63 00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:44,880 Speaker 3: Cannaban Colleen is speaking out against paul En Hanson, especially 64 00:03:44,880 --> 00:03:47,960 Speaker 3: some of her comments recently to do with Muslims. He's 65 00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:51,160 Speaker 3: also spoken out against Barnaby Joyce, who was a close 66 00:03:51,240 --> 00:03:54,040 Speaker 3: mate of his and the Nationals after he defected to 67 00:03:54,120 --> 00:03:57,680 Speaker 3: One Nation. As Patrick points out, Canavan is a conservative, 68 00:03:57,800 --> 00:04:00,680 Speaker 3: little proud the former leader was more moderate. Do you 69 00:04:00,720 --> 00:04:04,000 Speaker 3: think then that this will help stem the flow of 70 00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:08,120 Speaker 3: conservative votes to Pauline Hanson's party. 71 00:04:09,440 --> 00:04:13,440 Speaker 7: Well, Canevan has been really consistent his entire political career, 72 00:04:13,520 --> 00:04:16,200 Speaker 7: which is more than you can say for some MPs. 73 00:04:17,400 --> 00:04:21,120 Speaker 7: He was an early voice against against the voice of 74 00:04:21,400 --> 00:04:24,000 Speaker 7: early dissenter of the voice. 75 00:04:24,040 --> 00:04:24,600 Speaker 3: I should say. 76 00:04:25,800 --> 00:04:31,159 Speaker 7: He's been a advocate for using out many resources and 77 00:04:31,400 --> 00:04:34,719 Speaker 7: cost of energy, cost of living, so he's been He's 78 00:04:34,720 --> 00:04:37,880 Speaker 7: a plain speaking person that I think people warm to. 79 00:04:38,880 --> 00:04:41,640 Speaker 7: So I do think that he will claw back some 80 00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:44,599 Speaker 7: of those one nation votes. It is the irony though, 81 00:04:44,640 --> 00:04:47,880 Speaker 7: that the Nationals are the most exposed to one nation 82 00:04:48,040 --> 00:04:50,840 Speaker 7: votes because they're the people who have championed a lot 83 00:04:50,880 --> 00:04:53,640 Speaker 7: of those causes. And it remains to be seen yet 84 00:04:53,720 --> 00:04:56,679 Speaker 7: whether the coalition can actually get their act together quickly 85 00:04:56,800 --> 00:04:59,680 Speaker 7: enough to bring back those votes because there are still 86 00:04:59,720 --> 00:05:02,160 Speaker 7: a lot of big ticket items that have not been 87 00:05:02,320 --> 00:05:05,640 Speaker 7: yet resolved between the Nationals and the Liberal parties. So 88 00:05:05,680 --> 00:05:07,200 Speaker 7: there's still a lot of work to do. But I 89 00:05:07,240 --> 00:05:11,120 Speaker 7: do think that Canavan is a good operator. He presents well, 90 00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:13,599 Speaker 7: he speaks well, and he will I think stop the 91 00:05:13,600 --> 00:05:15,560 Speaker 7: bleeding perhaps from the Nationals. 92 00:05:15,760 --> 00:05:17,600 Speaker 3: I think he could be right Colleen, and he is 93 00:05:17,640 --> 00:05:20,120 Speaker 3: a favorite among sky Views as well. We always loved 94 00:05:20,160 --> 00:05:23,360 Speaker 3: having him on the network. Let's talk about Home Affairs 95 00:05:23,400 --> 00:05:27,200 Speaker 3: Minister Tony Burke, who's confirmed two additional members of the 96 00:05:27,200 --> 00:05:32,120 Speaker 3: Iranian women's football team have sought asylum, including one player 97 00:05:32,279 --> 00:05:35,080 Speaker 3: and one support member. Here was Burke talking about that 98 00:05:35,200 --> 00:05:35,760 Speaker 3: this morning. 99 00:05:36,680 --> 00:05:39,799 Speaker 1: I made them the same offer that I had made 100 00:05:39,800 --> 00:05:44,080 Speaker 1: the five players the night before, and that was that 101 00:05:44,120 --> 00:05:47,760 Speaker 1: if they wanted to receive a humanitarian visa for Australia 102 00:05:48,120 --> 00:05:51,000 Speaker 1: which would have a pathway to a permanent visa, I 103 00:05:51,279 --> 00:05:55,680 Speaker 1: had the paperwork ready to execute that immediately. They both 104 00:05:55,680 --> 00:05:59,040 Speaker 1: said that they did. I signed off on that as 105 00:05:59,160 --> 00:06:03,800 Speaker 1: a department too start processing straight away, and overnight that 106 00:06:03,920 --> 00:06:09,880 Speaker 1: processing happened after I'd flown on to Sydney. Those two 107 00:06:09,920 --> 00:06:13,520 Speaker 1: women were reunited with the other five players. 108 00:06:15,040 --> 00:06:18,800 Speaker 3: Ten News Plus has also aired harrowing vision of the 109 00:06:18,839 --> 00:06:23,080 Speaker 3: moment the players tried to flee their hotel as minders 110 00:06:23,200 --> 00:06:28,039 Speaker 3: attempted to chase them Patrick. The players have already now 111 00:06:28,080 --> 00:06:32,000 Speaker 3: been offered a place in the A League by one club, 112 00:06:32,080 --> 00:06:35,760 Speaker 3: Brisbane Raw, but there are still concerns for those players 113 00:06:35,839 --> 00:06:39,640 Speaker 3: who headed back to Iran, even though the regime I 114 00:06:39,720 --> 00:06:42,200 Speaker 3: note has said that they are safe. I don't think 115 00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:44,840 Speaker 3: we can take the regime and it's word necessarily. 116 00:06:46,560 --> 00:06:49,039 Speaker 6: Oh look, I think the dilemma for these players over 117 00:06:49,080 --> 00:06:52,159 Speaker 6: the past few days Caroline has really broken the hearts 118 00:06:52,200 --> 00:06:55,520 Speaker 6: of Australia. I mean there as I did, dan Is 119 00:06:55,520 --> 00:06:59,560 Speaker 6: I didn't. Their families, no matter whether they go back 120 00:06:59,640 --> 00:07:01,960 Speaker 6: or not, are going to be threatened. And we're talking 121 00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:04,760 Speaker 6: about the threat of death here, we're not talking about persecution. 122 00:07:05,880 --> 00:07:08,560 Speaker 6: So those players who were here in Australia, it's great 123 00:07:08,560 --> 00:07:12,040 Speaker 6: to see them being embraced by the community, but they've 124 00:07:12,040 --> 00:07:14,840 Speaker 6: got the same fears for their families as those players 125 00:07:14,880 --> 00:07:17,560 Speaker 6: who are going home as we speak. I mean, it's 126 00:07:17,560 --> 00:07:21,000 Speaker 6: a dreadful situation in Credit where it's due the Albanizi 127 00:07:21,040 --> 00:07:23,840 Speaker 6: government and Tony Burke actually did a good job of 128 00:07:23,880 --> 00:07:26,080 Speaker 6: making this happen as best as it could. 129 00:07:26,720 --> 00:07:29,760 Speaker 3: Yeah, it was a good result, which they deserve praise for. 130 00:07:29,880 --> 00:07:34,560 Speaker 3: I just wish they had perhaps started the ball rolling earlier, 131 00:07:34,640 --> 00:07:38,600 Speaker 3: because it had become a fiasco, Colleena over some ten 132 00:07:38,680 --> 00:07:41,720 Speaker 3: days from when these women first refused to sing the 133 00:07:41,840 --> 00:07:45,320 Speaker 3: national anthem at their first game at the Asian Women's Cup. 134 00:07:45,600 --> 00:07:49,520 Speaker 3: The government, however, through Tony Burke, has said it's glad 135 00:07:49,560 --> 00:07:52,480 Speaker 3: to see the back of some members of the Iranian squad, 136 00:07:52,520 --> 00:07:55,760 Speaker 3: but he was at pains to say the people connected 137 00:07:56,160 --> 00:07:59,920 Speaker 3: to Iran's Revolutionary Guard Corps had not been granted being 138 00:08:00,480 --> 00:08:04,480 Speaker 3: which suggests there had been an application by some IRGC 139 00:08:04,640 --> 00:08:08,520 Speaker 3: people to accompany the squad. Here. Clearly, though, Colleen, there 140 00:08:08,520 --> 00:08:11,280 Speaker 3: were people who were acting in the interests of the 141 00:08:11,280 --> 00:08:14,400 Speaker 3: regime by trying to stop these players from defecting. 142 00:08:16,280 --> 00:08:20,400 Speaker 7: Well, it's perplexing statement. He's obviously treading very carefully there 143 00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:22,360 Speaker 7: with what he has said, because on the one hand 144 00:08:22,400 --> 00:08:26,840 Speaker 7: he's saying that no Revolutionary Guard was provided a visa, 145 00:08:26,920 --> 00:08:29,760 Speaker 7: and yet the very next sentence is it is glad 146 00:08:29,800 --> 00:08:31,640 Speaker 7: to see the back of some of these people, and 147 00:08:31,680 --> 00:08:35,440 Speaker 7: there was clearly the scenario where the players were unable 148 00:08:35,480 --> 00:08:38,440 Speaker 7: to be spoken with unless they were separated from their minders. 149 00:08:39,280 --> 00:08:42,640 Speaker 7: So from where I'm sitting, both of those sentences can't 150 00:08:42,679 --> 00:08:46,000 Speaker 7: be true. It does bring into a question about who 151 00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:48,720 Speaker 7: gets to come into this country and under what circumstances, 152 00:08:48,760 --> 00:08:53,160 Speaker 7: and particularly Iranian Revolutionary Guards would have a huge question 153 00:08:53,240 --> 00:08:57,280 Speaker 7: mark for most Australians about foreign interference, the freedom of 154 00:08:57,320 --> 00:09:00,960 Speaker 7: movement within the country. When you're here, you know, there's 155 00:09:00,960 --> 00:09:02,840 Speaker 7: still a few questions to be asked around how that 156 00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:04,480 Speaker 7: whole snowing has worked out. 157 00:09:04,760 --> 00:09:08,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, there are, And of course the Revolutionary Guard are 158 00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:12,000 Speaker 3: now a designated terror organization in this country, so anyone 159 00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:14,480 Speaker 3: who has association with them, you'd have to think has 160 00:09:14,559 --> 00:09:17,920 Speaker 3: no place here. The Reserve Bank, let's talk about that, 161 00:09:17,960 --> 00:09:20,720 Speaker 3: because it has warned the conflict in our own could 162 00:09:20,800 --> 00:09:26,559 Speaker 3: unleash toxic inflation and higher interest rates. Deputy Governor Andrew 163 00:09:26,679 --> 00:09:31,160 Speaker 3: Houses said, soaring oil prices risks driving up interest rates 164 00:09:31,160 --> 00:09:37,120 Speaker 3: while also tempering economic growth, which could lead to higher unemployment. Patrick, 165 00:09:37,360 --> 00:09:38,840 Speaker 3: how bad do you think this will get? 166 00:09:40,600 --> 00:09:43,440 Speaker 6: Look, that's the million dollar question, Caroline. I mean, it 167 00:09:43,480 --> 00:09:45,560 Speaker 6: comes down to how long does this battle go on. 168 00:09:45,920 --> 00:09:48,959 Speaker 6: You can't see Donald Trump sort of hanging around for months. 169 00:09:49,760 --> 00:09:51,720 Speaker 6: But it comes down to that little body of water 170 00:09:51,760 --> 00:09:54,000 Speaker 6: that no one had ever heard of in Australia until 171 00:09:54,080 --> 00:09:58,000 Speaker 6: last week, the Strait of Humunds, and whether the Iranians 172 00:09:58,280 --> 00:10:00,960 Speaker 6: can hold the world to rans and not let oil 173 00:10:01,040 --> 00:10:04,520 Speaker 6: tankers get through. If that is opened in the next 174 00:10:04,520 --> 00:10:06,640 Speaker 6: few days or weeks, I think we're probably looking at 175 00:10:06,679 --> 00:10:07,720 Speaker 6: a fairly soft landing. 176 00:10:07,760 --> 00:10:10,040 Speaker 8: I mean, things will sort of bounce back to normal. 177 00:10:10,800 --> 00:10:13,319 Speaker 6: If it's not, then we're going to have higher interest rates, 178 00:10:13,520 --> 00:10:18,120 Speaker 6: We're going to have a slowing economy that's going to 179 00:10:18,200 --> 00:10:20,560 Speaker 6: lead to higher unemployment, and it's going to be a 180 00:10:20,559 --> 00:10:22,400 Speaker 6: really rough twenty twenty six. 181 00:10:22,679 --> 00:10:25,000 Speaker 8: If this keeps playing out as it has over the 182 00:10:25,080 --> 00:10:28,120 Speaker 8: last week or so. It's really hard to say at 183 00:10:28,160 --> 00:10:29,520 Speaker 8: this point what's going to happen. 184 00:10:29,880 --> 00:10:32,640 Speaker 3: Colleen. We've already seen the impact of this war on 185 00:10:32,720 --> 00:10:36,440 Speaker 3: petrol prices. Of course, here it's meant tweets like this 186 00:10:36,480 --> 00:10:39,760 Speaker 3: one from Anthony Albanizi back in twenty twenty one. Well 187 00:10:39,920 --> 00:10:43,120 Speaker 3: they haven't aged so well, ol Bow posted back then, 188 00:10:43,200 --> 00:10:46,240 Speaker 3: do you reckon? Scott Morrison has been to a petrol station. 189 00:10:46,400 --> 00:10:50,240 Speaker 3: Lately petrol prices surging under his watch, and if you 190 00:10:50,679 --> 00:10:53,360 Speaker 3: look closely there you can see the price one hundred 191 00:10:53,400 --> 00:10:56,439 Speaker 3: and seventy nine to ninety for unlettered I mean, g 192 00:10:56,679 --> 00:10:59,559 Speaker 3: it would be nice to have those sorts of prices now, 193 00:11:01,360 --> 00:11:02,040 Speaker 3: wouldn't it just? 194 00:11:02,120 --> 00:11:06,000 Speaker 7: I think I saw today about two twenty at the moment. Look, 195 00:11:06,480 --> 00:11:09,520 Speaker 7: I think the scenario here is that geopolitics will move 196 00:11:09,960 --> 00:11:12,880 Speaker 7: prices at the margin. But the real issue is it 197 00:11:13,000 --> 00:11:16,080 Speaker 7: is an insight into the failures of our domestic policy 198 00:11:16,679 --> 00:11:20,559 Speaker 7: because over the years we have demonized our natural resources. 199 00:11:21,200 --> 00:11:22,080 Speaker 3: We had eight. 200 00:11:21,880 --> 00:11:24,280 Speaker 7: Refineries of our own that we are now down to two. 201 00:11:24,400 --> 00:11:26,720 Speaker 7: We put out about two hundred and thirty thousand barrels 202 00:11:26,720 --> 00:11:29,960 Speaker 7: a day, which is not sustainable. It's about twenty percent 203 00:11:30,040 --> 00:11:33,640 Speaker 7: of what's required. So we've gone through this process where 204 00:11:33,679 --> 00:11:38,400 Speaker 7: Australia has allowed itself to be dependent on other countries 205 00:11:38,480 --> 00:11:41,800 Speaker 7: rather than using the resources that we have. And it 206 00:11:41,880 --> 00:11:44,559 Speaker 7: is that failure of domestic policy that is what will 207 00:11:44,640 --> 00:11:47,440 Speaker 7: hit us the hardest, not what's actually happening overseas. 208 00:11:48,600 --> 00:11:52,320 Speaker 3: Patrick. This fuel supply crisis has led to such panic 209 00:11:52,400 --> 00:11:56,240 Speaker 3: buying of jerry cans that Australians are now reselling them 210 00:11:56,280 --> 00:12:00,240 Speaker 3: on Facebook marketplace for as much as one thousand dollars. Yes, 211 00:12:00,280 --> 00:12:02,920 Speaker 3: that is what they're being listed for. One Melbourne seller, 212 00:12:03,200 --> 00:12:06,240 Speaker 3: who listed a fuel container for five hundred dollars told 213 00:12:06,240 --> 00:12:11,360 Speaker 3: potential customers no Lobal offers. I know what I've got Patrick. Look, 214 00:12:12,040 --> 00:12:14,600 Speaker 3: it's hard to know how seriously to take this, but 215 00:12:14,760 --> 00:12:18,160 Speaker 3: it is true that fuel containers are out of stock 216 00:12:18,240 --> 00:12:22,280 Speaker 3: in many places like Bunning's BCF and super Cheap Auto. 217 00:12:22,559 --> 00:12:24,480 Speaker 3: Clearly people are panicking. 218 00:12:26,200 --> 00:12:28,800 Speaker 8: Look, I can understand the panic. I mean, you hear 219 00:12:28,840 --> 00:12:29,439 Speaker 8: these stories. 220 00:12:29,440 --> 00:12:31,560 Speaker 6: You hear that we've got what thirty two days worth 221 00:12:31,600 --> 00:12:35,439 Speaker 6: of diesel left, and in the regions you are having 222 00:12:35,559 --> 00:12:37,880 Speaker 6: service stations that have run out of fuel and that 223 00:12:37,920 --> 00:12:41,640 Speaker 6: has huge flow on ef fix in terms of agriculture 224 00:12:41,679 --> 00:12:45,960 Speaker 6: and food and so on. It really is one of 225 00:12:45,960 --> 00:12:48,520 Speaker 6: those things with the jerry cans, where you can understand 226 00:12:48,520 --> 00:12:49,880 Speaker 6: people rushing out to buy them. 227 00:12:50,080 --> 00:12:50,240 Speaker 8: Now. 228 00:12:50,320 --> 00:12:51,920 Speaker 6: I actually have a jerry can at home, but I 229 00:12:51,920 --> 00:12:54,120 Speaker 6: think it only holds about ten liters, which I think 230 00:12:54,160 --> 00:12:57,720 Speaker 6: is probably about one hundred kilometers worth of driving. I'm 231 00:12:57,720 --> 00:12:59,280 Speaker 6: not sure they're going to get you very far, but 232 00:12:59,320 --> 00:13:01,600 Speaker 6: I can understand and the sentiment, Well. 233 00:13:01,400 --> 00:13:04,079 Speaker 3: You might want to consider listing it on the Facebook marketplace, 234 00:13:04,120 --> 00:13:07,480 Speaker 3: so here they can get quite an amount for you. Now, Patrick, 235 00:13:07,480 --> 00:13:09,600 Speaker 3: if you're looking for an extra bit of cash, Let's 236 00:13:09,640 --> 00:13:12,920 Speaker 3: talk quickly about the official program for the Sydney Writers Festival, 237 00:13:13,000 --> 00:13:15,760 Speaker 3: because it's been released and it features none other than 238 00:13:15,840 --> 00:13:21,400 Speaker 3: controversial anti Israel academic Randa abdel Fata. But in a 239 00:13:21,440 --> 00:13:25,520 Speaker 3: refreshing change, the festival has also programmed a few Jewish 240 00:13:25,559 --> 00:13:29,960 Speaker 3: writers and artists, among them Lee Kaufman, Simon Tedesky and 241 00:13:30,080 --> 00:13:34,040 Speaker 3: journalist Michael Vesonte. Look, Colleen, it's good that there are 242 00:13:34,080 --> 00:13:37,719 Speaker 3: some Jewish voices finally being invited to these arts festivals. 243 00:13:37,800 --> 00:13:40,640 Speaker 3: I know a lot of Jewish artists and writers felt 244 00:13:40,679 --> 00:13:43,720 Speaker 3: like they had been left out in recent years. But 245 00:13:43,800 --> 00:13:47,480 Speaker 3: I do note that the Gaza session here only features 246 00:13:47,520 --> 00:13:51,440 Speaker 3: Palestinian and anti Israel voices. So I dare say I 247 00:13:51,440 --> 00:13:53,520 Speaker 3: don't feel that much has changed. 248 00:13:55,400 --> 00:13:57,840 Speaker 7: Well, I mean, this is the scenario with all of 249 00:13:57,840 --> 00:14:01,600 Speaker 7: these writers' festivals and arts festivals. It is that they 250 00:14:01,840 --> 00:14:05,880 Speaker 7: have become sort of progressive activist rallies rather than their 251 00:14:06,400 --> 00:14:10,600 Speaker 7: actual intended purpose. So you know, okay, they've included one 252 00:14:10,679 --> 00:14:12,559 Speaker 7: or two people now, but they've got a history of 253 00:14:13,520 --> 00:14:18,680 Speaker 7: using that platform for activism, and plenty of conservative people 254 00:14:18,800 --> 00:14:22,640 Speaker 7: have been not given the same oxygen, the same opportunity. 255 00:14:22,720 --> 00:14:24,600 Speaker 7: So I think people are looking at these things and 256 00:14:24,640 --> 00:14:26,920 Speaker 7: sort of going, it's just more of the same. It's 257 00:14:26,960 --> 00:14:30,320 Speaker 7: a slight tweak, but you know, it's not really solving 258 00:14:30,360 --> 00:14:33,000 Speaker 7: the problem about what their core purpose is actually supposed 259 00:14:33,040 --> 00:14:37,920 Speaker 7: to be about. Promoting you know, the penmanship of writing 260 00:14:37,960 --> 00:14:40,480 Speaker 7: and authorship and what that can do, rather than political 261 00:14:40,520 --> 00:14:42,280 Speaker 7: activism on the taxpayer's dollar. 262 00:14:42,760 --> 00:14:46,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, too true, and it just seems tokenistic at this point. 263 00:14:46,360 --> 00:14:48,800 Speaker 3: I mean, I looked at the schedule. Tony Abbott is 264 00:14:49,000 --> 00:14:52,160 Speaker 3: going to be featuring in the program, but overwhelmingly it 265 00:14:52,200 --> 00:14:55,920 Speaker 3: does feature very far left voices. Patrick Colleen, thank you 266 00:14:55,960 --> 00:14:59,160 Speaker 3: both so much for your time. Let's bring in adjunct 267 00:14:59,200 --> 00:15:02,080 Speaker 3: fellow at the said you to Public Affairs and former 268 00:15:02,160 --> 00:15:06,680 Speaker 3: Deputy Secretary of Strategy with the Defense Department, Peter Jennings. Peter, 269 00:15:06,920 --> 00:15:10,440 Speaker 3: thanks for joining us now. You've written an opinion apiece 270 00:15:10,520 --> 00:15:14,480 Speaker 3: in The Australian Today praising the Albanese government for making 271 00:15:14,520 --> 00:15:18,160 Speaker 3: the right decision to deploy aircraft and missiles to the 272 00:15:18,240 --> 00:15:21,800 Speaker 3: United Arab Emirates. But you say that there should have 273 00:15:21,880 --> 00:15:24,320 Speaker 3: been done even earlier. Why do you say that. 274 00:15:25,760 --> 00:15:28,080 Speaker 2: I think it would have been better for everyone, frankly 275 00:15:28,320 --> 00:15:32,840 Speaker 2: if the American and Israeli strike on Around had been 276 00:15:32,880 --> 00:15:37,280 Speaker 2: broadened out into a coalition operation. You know, there's fault 277 00:15:37,360 --> 00:15:41,640 Speaker 2: both in Washington, DC and in the Alliance capitals that. 278 00:15:41,440 --> 00:15:45,280 Speaker 9: That didn't happen. But it now slowly is. 279 00:15:45,560 --> 00:15:48,320 Speaker 2: The British are becoming involved, the French and Germans are 280 00:15:48,320 --> 00:15:52,240 Speaker 2: becoming involved, and a key reason for that is that 281 00:15:52,280 --> 00:15:55,760 Speaker 2: this is all in our national security interests to keep 282 00:15:55,800 --> 00:15:59,320 Speaker 2: oil flowing through the straits of for Mers and to 283 00:15:59,400 --> 00:16:05,680 Speaker 2: see ultimately Around turned into a non aggressive, hopefully democratic, 284 00:16:06,600 --> 00:16:09,960 Speaker 2: but at least not anti Israel and anti American country. 285 00:16:10,960 --> 00:16:13,560 Speaker 2: And so the more that we can contribute to that outcome, 286 00:16:13,720 --> 00:16:17,480 Speaker 2: the better. I think our government has taken a small step, 287 00:16:17,840 --> 00:16:20,560 Speaker 2: a useful step, but there's more things that we could do, 288 00:16:21,600 --> 00:16:24,720 Speaker 2: and if the war lasts for a longer period of time, 289 00:16:24,760 --> 00:16:27,040 Speaker 2: I'm sure we will become more involved in different ways. 290 00:16:27,640 --> 00:16:27,800 Speaker 10: Well. 291 00:16:27,840 --> 00:16:31,000 Speaker 3: Foreign Minister Paneywong has said that she anticipates that this 292 00:16:31,080 --> 00:16:34,680 Speaker 3: conflict will continue for some time. Do you see this going? 293 00:16:34,760 --> 00:16:36,160 Speaker 3: How long do you think it's going to go for 294 00:16:36,560 --> 00:16:38,600 Speaker 3: and do you think then we need to take more 295 00:16:38,800 --> 00:16:43,280 Speaker 3: of an offensive role in cooperation here, because the government's 296 00:16:43,320 --> 00:16:48,480 Speaker 3: been very clear to say that this is purely defensive. 297 00:16:48,560 --> 00:16:50,880 Speaker 3: We're just helping out the Gulf States. But do we 298 00:16:50,960 --> 00:16:54,120 Speaker 3: need now to be joining in on the offensive side 299 00:16:54,160 --> 00:16:54,800 Speaker 3: of things. 300 00:16:55,440 --> 00:16:58,840 Speaker 2: I'd like i government to be playing fewer games around 301 00:16:59,440 --> 00:17:02,600 Speaker 2: what's pure defensive. I mean, I thought it was ridiculous 302 00:17:02,640 --> 00:17:05,240 Speaker 2: for the Prime Minister to suggest that, well, we had 303 00:17:05,280 --> 00:17:10,080 Speaker 2: three sailors on that American submarine which torpedoed an Iranian boat, 304 00:17:10,119 --> 00:17:13,840 Speaker 2: but our sailors weren't doing anything offensive. I mean, if 305 00:17:13,840 --> 00:17:16,280 Speaker 2: you're a crew of a submarine that torpedoes and boat, 306 00:17:16,520 --> 00:17:19,359 Speaker 2: you've been involved in an offensive act. 307 00:17:19,680 --> 00:17:22,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, what were they doing playing solitaire at the time. 308 00:17:26,280 --> 00:17:28,400 Speaker 2: There's no peace cell at the back of the submarine, right, 309 00:17:28,440 --> 00:17:30,320 Speaker 2: So I mean that it's kind of silly that the. 310 00:17:30,280 --> 00:17:32,200 Speaker 9: Government is making these distinctions. 311 00:17:33,080 --> 00:17:35,199 Speaker 2: Where I think we should go myself would be to 312 00:17:35,520 --> 00:17:38,320 Speaker 2: offer a ship which, in coalition with others, could be 313 00:17:38,359 --> 00:17:41,439 Speaker 2: patrolling the straits of Immers and the entrance to the 314 00:17:41,480 --> 00:17:46,000 Speaker 2: straits on both sides. I think it's a critical interest 315 00:17:46,119 --> 00:17:50,080 Speaker 2: to all of us to see that oil flow continue, 316 00:17:50,880 --> 00:17:53,480 Speaker 2: and so that's something that I think our government could, 317 00:17:54,200 --> 00:17:56,560 Speaker 2: with a little bit of courage, sell to the Australian people. 318 00:17:57,680 --> 00:17:59,280 Speaker 2: On the question of you know, how long will the 319 00:17:59,320 --> 00:18:02,800 Speaker 2: conflict go, I don't know. What I can see is 320 00:18:02,880 --> 00:18:05,520 Speaker 2: that it doesn't look to me like the regimes on 321 00:18:05,560 --> 00:18:09,320 Speaker 2: the point of surrender. It still seems to be functioning 322 00:18:09,359 --> 00:18:14,160 Speaker 2: as a government. I keep seeing clips of Raqi Iranian 323 00:18:14,200 --> 00:18:19,199 Speaker 2: controlled television still functioning. So I think there's more that 324 00:18:19,320 --> 00:18:23,760 Speaker 2: needs to happen. And what I'm really getting to on 325 00:18:23,840 --> 00:18:26,000 Speaker 2: this is to say, well, it's one thing to destroy 326 00:18:26,040 --> 00:18:30,280 Speaker 2: their nuclear infrastructure and their missiles and drones, but at 327 00:18:30,320 --> 00:18:31,840 Speaker 2: the end of the day, you don't get rid of 328 00:18:31,880 --> 00:18:35,040 Speaker 2: that hostile and tent towards Israel and the United States 329 00:18:35,119 --> 00:18:39,440 Speaker 2: unless you get rid of that theocratic dictatorship which operates 330 00:18:39,440 --> 00:18:40,000 Speaker 2: in Tehran. 331 00:18:40,720 --> 00:18:41,600 Speaker 9: And so I think the. 332 00:18:43,760 --> 00:18:46,119 Speaker 2: US and the Israelis need to stick with that until 333 00:18:46,119 --> 00:18:49,160 Speaker 2: they get to that point, and that could be quite 334 00:18:49,160 --> 00:18:51,600 Speaker 2: some time. It could be weeks, it could be a 335 00:18:51,640 --> 00:18:55,160 Speaker 2: small number of months. But the war is not going 336 00:18:55,200 --> 00:18:57,959 Speaker 2: to end in the next forty eight or seventy two hours. 337 00:18:58,280 --> 00:19:00,639 Speaker 3: No, it doesn't seem that way to find Secretary of 338 00:19:00,680 --> 00:19:03,760 Speaker 3: Pete Hegseth said the US is preparing to launch its 339 00:19:04,160 --> 00:19:08,000 Speaker 3: most intense day of strikes against Iran. Here he was 340 00:19:08,040 --> 00:19:12,080 Speaker 3: giving an update on Operation Epic Theory at the Pentagon overnight. 341 00:19:13,000 --> 00:19:17,240 Speaker 11: Today will be yet again our most intense day of 342 00:19:17,320 --> 00:19:21,840 Speaker 11: strikes inside Iran. The most fighters, the most bombers, the 343 00:19:21,920 --> 00:19:27,280 Speaker 11: most strikes, intelligence, more refined and better than ever. 344 00:19:28,040 --> 00:19:28,880 Speaker 8: So that's on one hand. 345 00:19:28,920 --> 00:19:31,480 Speaker 11: On the other hand, the last twenty four hours have 346 00:19:31,520 --> 00:19:35,520 Speaker 11: seen Iran fire the lowest number of missiles they've been 347 00:19:35,560 --> 00:19:37,760 Speaker 11: capable of firing yet. 348 00:19:38,680 --> 00:19:42,560 Speaker 3: Peter Hegseth said again the US is winning this war 349 00:19:42,800 --> 00:19:46,480 Speaker 3: and also tried to reassure Americans that the US won't 350 00:19:46,520 --> 00:19:49,320 Speaker 3: become trapped in another endless war. Do you think he's 351 00:19:49,400 --> 00:19:50,600 Speaker 3: right on both counts. 352 00:19:52,080 --> 00:19:55,000 Speaker 9: I don't think the US will allow itself to be trapped. 353 00:19:55,040 --> 00:19:58,000 Speaker 2: I think there will be very strict limits up against 354 00:19:58,040 --> 00:20:01,200 Speaker 2: which President Trump will not go by the way, I 355 00:20:01,240 --> 00:20:03,760 Speaker 2: don't think that rules out a small number of boots 356 00:20:03,760 --> 00:20:06,320 Speaker 2: on the ground, and I wouldn't be surprised, in fact, 357 00:20:06,359 --> 00:20:09,160 Speaker 2: if there were some special forces on the ground already 358 00:20:09,240 --> 00:20:14,000 Speaker 2: in Iran, so you know, more still to go. I 359 00:20:14,040 --> 00:20:16,399 Speaker 2: think what we're seeing Hegseth do here is that he 360 00:20:16,560 --> 00:20:20,320 Speaker 2: needs to give the impression and he does that the 361 00:20:20,320 --> 00:20:24,320 Speaker 2: Americans are committed to this operation. He can't leave the 362 00:20:24,320 --> 00:20:26,560 Speaker 2: Iranians thinking that if they can just tough it out 363 00:20:26,600 --> 00:20:27,960 Speaker 2: in the bunkers for another week. 364 00:20:27,840 --> 00:20:28,760 Speaker 9: That's the end of it. 365 00:20:29,160 --> 00:20:30,960 Speaker 2: So I think that's kind of the purpose of these 366 00:20:31,080 --> 00:20:35,560 Speaker 2: rather hyped press conferences that hecsectors is given. 367 00:20:36,320 --> 00:20:38,960 Speaker 9: And it's clear to me that they've done that. 368 00:20:39,000 --> 00:20:42,359 Speaker 2: They being the Americans, have done everything they can to 369 00:20:42,440 --> 00:20:45,359 Speaker 2: give themselves that capacity to keep going. They've pushed a 370 00:20:45,440 --> 00:20:48,520 Speaker 2: lot of military equipment into the region, a lot of 371 00:20:49,160 --> 00:20:53,600 Speaker 2: bombs and missiles to enable these operations to continue. And 372 00:20:53,640 --> 00:20:55,840 Speaker 2: so that is surely going to happen up until the 373 00:20:55,880 --> 00:21:00,800 Speaker 2: point that we get a surrender, or a new leader 374 00:21:00,880 --> 00:21:04,040 Speaker 2: takes over, or we start to see signs of popular 375 00:21:04,080 --> 00:21:06,879 Speaker 2: revolt in Tehran. I think they're the things that we 376 00:21:06,960 --> 00:21:10,000 Speaker 2: need to look for now. If that doesn't happen in 377 00:21:10,040 --> 00:21:11,560 Speaker 2: the next few weeks, I'm going to start to get 378 00:21:11,560 --> 00:21:15,160 Speaker 2: a bit more concerned about the overall direction of the campaign. 379 00:21:15,200 --> 00:21:18,280 Speaker 2: But I think at the moment, the advantages with the 380 00:21:18,320 --> 00:21:20,600 Speaker 2: Americans and the Israelis, and I think it'll stay that. 381 00:21:20,560 --> 00:21:21,880 Speaker 9: Way for some time. 382 00:21:22,240 --> 00:21:25,879 Speaker 3: Okay, let's hope. So thank you Peter Jennings, appreciate your time. 383 00:21:26,480 --> 00:21:30,080 Speaker 3: After the break left, He's losing it, including this activist 384 00:21:30,160 --> 00:21:33,879 Speaker 3: demanding everyone be allowed to stay in New York, only 385 00:21:33,960 --> 00:21:37,960 Speaker 3: to be interrupted by an ISIS suspect throwing a bomb. 386 00:21:48,200 --> 00:21:51,399 Speaker 3: Welcome back. I'm Cali Marcus filling in for Ruta. And 387 00:21:51,480 --> 00:21:55,000 Speaker 3: now it's time for lefties losing it. Let's begin with 388 00:21:55,040 --> 00:22:00,320 Speaker 3: these Students for Palestine Australia activists telling children to skips 389 00:22:00,320 --> 00:22:04,480 Speaker 3: today to protest against the war on the Iranian regime. 390 00:22:05,320 --> 00:22:07,840 Speaker 12: We're walking out of school in Uni to protest Israel 391 00:22:07,880 --> 00:22:09,480 Speaker 12: and America's war on the Middle East. 392 00:22:09,960 --> 00:22:12,760 Speaker 3: Sorry, sorry, sorry, Let me just interrupt you there. This 393 00:22:12,920 --> 00:22:16,280 Speaker 3: is not the US and Israel's war on the Middle East. 394 00:22:16,440 --> 00:22:22,280 Speaker 3: These were preemptive strikes against a despotic Islamist regime, not 395 00:22:22,400 --> 00:22:25,280 Speaker 3: the entire Middle East. It's Iran who has widened this 396 00:22:25,359 --> 00:22:28,280 Speaker 3: conflict by hitting Gulf states. But please carry on. 397 00:22:29,000 --> 00:22:30,520 Speaker 9: Schools have been bombed in Iran. 398 00:22:30,560 --> 00:22:33,040 Speaker 13: One hundred and sixty were killed in an elementary school 399 00:22:33,080 --> 00:22:35,200 Speaker 13: in Iran, and that is why every high schooler needs 400 00:22:35,240 --> 00:22:36,240 Speaker 13: to be out on Wednesday. 401 00:22:36,560 --> 00:22:39,280 Speaker 3: Wait, can I just jump in here again. We don't 402 00:22:39,359 --> 00:22:43,240 Speaker 3: yet know who hit the school. That is still under investigation. 403 00:22:43,400 --> 00:22:46,200 Speaker 3: President Trump has said the US believes the bombing was 404 00:22:46,240 --> 00:22:48,040 Speaker 3: done by your mates Iran. 405 00:22:48,800 --> 00:22:52,800 Speaker 12: But let's continue bespeakable war of aggression by Trump and 406 00:22:52,880 --> 00:22:55,880 Speaker 12: Netanyahu against the Middle East. This is a new war 407 00:22:56,080 --> 00:22:59,960 Speaker 12: which is destroying hundreds of homes, it's killing thousands of people, 408 00:23:00,320 --> 00:23:02,520 Speaker 12: and so we need all young people to join us 409 00:23:02,520 --> 00:23:04,000 Speaker 12: in the streets to stand against it. 410 00:23:04,800 --> 00:23:07,280 Speaker 3: Look, there is so much to unpack there that is 411 00:23:08,119 --> 00:23:11,480 Speaker 3: not factual, But not a single mention I knowe of course, 412 00:23:11,520 --> 00:23:14,879 Speaker 3: and the tens of thousands of Iranian people this evil 413 00:23:14,960 --> 00:23:19,160 Speaker 3: regime has murdered in recent weeks alone, I guess they're 414 00:23:19,200 --> 00:23:22,679 Speaker 3: not worth wagging school for. Meanwhile, the deputy leader of 415 00:23:22,680 --> 00:23:26,560 Speaker 3: Australia's far left Greens party was also urging kids to 416 00:23:26,600 --> 00:23:31,400 Speaker 3: play hooky today, telling them protesting for Palestine is more 417 00:23:31,440 --> 00:23:32,520 Speaker 3: important than school. 418 00:23:33,480 --> 00:23:37,840 Speaker 14: Students across the country are showing up for something that matters. 419 00:23:38,119 --> 00:23:41,000 Speaker 14: They're showing up for the people in Gaza. They're showing 420 00:23:41,119 --> 00:23:45,720 Speaker 14: up to say students won't stay silent and honestly, attendance 421 00:23:45,920 --> 00:23:49,240 Speaker 14: is better there anyway. So if you're still hair watching this, 422 00:23:49,960 --> 00:23:53,600 Speaker 14: consider this your late slip. Be there, bring your friends, 423 00:23:53,920 --> 00:23:57,480 Speaker 14: because sometimes the most important thing you can do as 424 00:23:57,520 --> 00:24:00,119 Speaker 14: students is walk up. 425 00:24:01,640 --> 00:24:04,960 Speaker 3: Over in the US. Meanwhile, this high school teacher went 426 00:24:05,040 --> 00:24:09,560 Speaker 3: on TikTok to offer advice to Iranian leaders about where 427 00:24:09,600 --> 00:24:13,760 Speaker 3: they should target if they want to kill Trump, just. 428 00:24:13,640 --> 00:24:19,040 Speaker 4: Go straight for our jugular the White House, obviously the Capitol. 429 00:24:19,160 --> 00:24:22,679 Speaker 4: I know those are like very well protected. Have you 430 00:24:22,800 --> 00:24:25,520 Speaker 4: ever heard of a place called Mara Laga? 431 00:24:27,240 --> 00:24:30,960 Speaker 3: That video was taken down by the platform after being reported, 432 00:24:31,359 --> 00:24:34,240 Speaker 3: but the teacher was soon back and doubling down. 433 00:24:35,160 --> 00:24:39,000 Speaker 15: So apparently a lot of you did not like my video, 434 00:24:39,240 --> 00:24:45,360 Speaker 15: asking countries like Aaron if they knew that our president 435 00:24:45,520 --> 00:24:48,280 Speaker 15: spent a lot of time at mar A Lago. 436 00:24:48,880 --> 00:24:51,600 Speaker 4: You guys reported it enough to get it taken down. 437 00:24:52,640 --> 00:24:54,520 Speaker 15: I'm gonna repeat it. 438 00:24:56,119 --> 00:24:58,119 Speaker 4: Have they checked mar A Lago? Do you know he 439 00:24:58,200 --> 00:25:00,960 Speaker 4: spends a long time with mar A Lago. 440 00:25:01,119 --> 00:25:04,240 Speaker 3: Let's put aside how disturbing it is that this is 441 00:25:04,280 --> 00:25:08,120 Speaker 3: a person who's in charge of educating children. But I'm 442 00:25:08,160 --> 00:25:11,520 Speaker 3: pretty sure the Iranian regime has already heard of Mari 443 00:25:11,600 --> 00:25:15,320 Speaker 3: Lago without your help, lady, but it's not just randoms 444 00:25:15,320 --> 00:25:19,520 Speaker 3: online making light of the assassination of a president.

That was inconvenient. And here 464 00:26:27,200 --> 00:26:32,199 Speaker 3: is that same comedian, Walter Masterson, talking about the incident later, 465 00:26:32,680 --> 00:26:35,480 Speaker 3: and it turns out having a bomb thrown over his 466 00:26:35,640 --> 00:26:37,800 Speaker 3: head hasn't changed his views. 467 00:26:38,680 --> 00:26:41,560 Speaker 13: They literally threw the bomb over my head while I 468 00:26:41,640 --> 00:26:44,840 Speaker 13: was talking about inclusion.

It 497 00:28:23,640 --> 00:28:26,840 Speaker 3: follows an earlier warning from President Donald Trump on truth 498 00:28:26,960 --> 00:28:30,720 Speaker 3: Social that Iran would be hit twenty times harder if 499 00:28:30,760 --> 00:28:33,639 Speaker 3: the regime does anything to stop the flow of oil 500 00:28:33,680 --> 00:28:37,359 Speaker 3: within the Strait of Hormuz. A video released by US 501 00:28:37,359 --> 00:28:41,600 Speaker 3: Central Command shows sixteen Iranian mind laying vessels near the 502 00:28:41,640 --> 00:28:45,440 Speaker 3: strait being destroyed. Army Trump has also said he is 503 00:28:45,520 --> 00:28:49,400 Speaker 3: not happy about Iran's pick for new supreme leader. 504 00:28:49,680 --> 00:28:50,240 Speaker 10: This is the. 505 00:28:50,240 --> 00:28:55,040 Speaker 3: Late Iotola's son, Mishama Kamene, saying I don't believe he 506 00:28:55,080 --> 00:28:58,560 Speaker 3: can live in peace. What do you see happening in 507 00:28:58,600 --> 00:29:00,720 Speaker 3: the next phase of complaints? 508 00:29:02,600 --> 00:29:06,080 Speaker 18: Yeah, Nepo, Baby Harmony is gonna have a lot of 509 00:29:06,200 --> 00:29:11,880 Speaker 18: therapist material to discuss when he found out that Daddy Homeny, 510 00:29:12,560 --> 00:29:16,320 Speaker 18: prior to his death, wrote a letter right to the 511 00:29:16,320 --> 00:29:20,480 Speaker 18: Council of Experts saying, please do not elect my son 512 00:29:20,920 --> 00:29:22,280 Speaker 18: as Supreme Leader. 513 00:29:22,720 --> 00:29:25,000 Speaker 10: So, yeah, he can't. 514 00:29:24,760 --> 00:29:25,160 Speaker 3: Live with it. 515 00:29:25,200 --> 00:29:25,840 Speaker 10: He won't live with it. 516 00:29:25,880 --> 00:29:27,720 Speaker 18: I don't think he'll be with us for a very 517 00:29:27,760 --> 00:29:30,040 Speaker 18: long time. Look around has had a very bad hand, 518 00:29:30,400 --> 00:29:31,520 Speaker 18: and they've played. 519 00:29:31,200 --> 00:29:35,640 Speaker 10: It really, really poorly. Let me tell you what I've seen. 520 00:29:36,040 --> 00:29:37,000 Speaker 10: I've seen that. 521 00:29:37,240 --> 00:29:41,880 Speaker 18: Two of our biggest geopolitical foes, Russia and Iran, haven't 522 00:29:41,880 --> 00:29:47,120 Speaker 18: been exposed as paper tigers. Okay, and the third China, 523 00:29:47,960 --> 00:29:49,840 Speaker 18: they're being really careful. 524 00:29:50,080 --> 00:29:53,200 Speaker 10: Mind they're p's and q's. They also want to be 525 00:29:53,240 --> 00:29:54,080 Speaker 10: exposed to what. 526 00:29:54,200 --> 00:29:56,520 Speaker 18: I think that the largest of the three, I think 527 00:29:56,560 --> 00:29:58,960 Speaker 18: relatively are size and the amount of money they spent 528 00:29:59,000 --> 00:30:01,120 Speaker 18: in the military. I think they might be a bit 529 00:30:01,160 --> 00:30:03,720 Speaker 18: of a paper tiger. Also, sorry, I know it's a 530 00:30:03,760 --> 00:30:04,320 Speaker 18: hot take. 531 00:30:04,480 --> 00:30:04,720 Speaker 13: I know. 532 00:30:05,320 --> 00:30:08,920 Speaker 10: Look, we're twelve days in and the media is already 533 00:30:08,960 --> 00:30:13,040 Speaker 10: using the Q word, right, quagmire. Twelve days in. 534 00:30:14,480 --> 00:30:19,320 Speaker 18: Let's be clear, Okay, in twelve days, we are very close. 535 00:30:19,400 --> 00:30:22,600 Speaker 18: I'm not there yet, but we are very close to 536 00:30:22,800 --> 00:30:25,560 Speaker 18: flipping a regime that has been a thorn on our 537 00:30:25,720 --> 00:30:28,960 Speaker 18: side for half a century, Okay. And to give you 538 00:30:28,960 --> 00:30:31,720 Speaker 18: the sense of scale and what we've accomplished in twelve days, 539 00:30:31,840 --> 00:30:35,480 Speaker 18: like you said it, five thousand targets in twelve days. 540 00:30:35,840 --> 00:30:40,160 Speaker 18: Bosnia was several days long, the bombing of Bosnia and 541 00:30:40,240 --> 00:30:44,280 Speaker 18: we hit three hundred targets. So yeah, this has been 542 00:30:44,320 --> 00:30:48,960 Speaker 18: an incredibly effective campaign. I see it continuing, and I 543 00:30:49,040 --> 00:30:52,840 Speaker 18: see the days of the Iranian regime very very numbered. 544 00:30:53,360 --> 00:30:55,760 Speaker 3: Well, look, I tend to agree with you. I don't 545 00:30:55,800 --> 00:30:58,760 Speaker 3: know about the China and Russia being pa just paper targets, 546 00:30:58,840 --> 00:31:02,080 Speaker 3: especially China boy. But you know, there were people who 547 00:31:02,120 --> 00:31:06,680 Speaker 3: were these and never Trumpers who were talking about a 548 00:31:06,760 --> 00:31:09,960 Speaker 3: never ending war from within the first few days. So 549 00:31:10,400 --> 00:31:11,800 Speaker 3: I don't think a lot of those people know what 550 00:31:11,800 --> 00:31:14,920 Speaker 3: they're talking about. But let's see what happens next. Trump supporters, 551 00:31:14,960 --> 00:31:18,080 Speaker 3: there are some of them have also expressed concern about 552 00:31:18,120 --> 00:31:21,240 Speaker 3: what the war is doing to oil prices in the US. 553 00:31:21,600 --> 00:31:25,719 Speaker 3: Now that includes the president's close allied Republican Senator Lindsay Graham, 554 00:31:25,760 --> 00:31:28,600 Speaker 3: and he's been one of Israel's biggest supporters in the Senate, 555 00:31:28,880 --> 00:31:31,720 Speaker 3: but he's also among those who are cautioning the President 556 00:31:31,840 --> 00:31:37,440 Speaker 3: about Israel possibly going too far in bombing Iran's oil installations. 557 00:31:37,480 --> 00:31:40,880 Speaker 3: He said, our goal is to liberate the Iranian people 558 00:31:40,920 --> 00:31:44,120 Speaker 3: in a fashion that does not cripple their chance to 559 00:31:44,200 --> 00:31:47,760 Speaker 3: start a new and better life when this regime collapses. 560 00:31:47,880 --> 00:31:52,840 Speaker 3: The oil economy of Iran will be essential to that endeavor. Armie, 561 00:31:52,840 --> 00:31:54,400 Speaker 3: what did he make of this intervention? 562 00:31:56,280 --> 00:31:59,680 Speaker 18: Yeah, look, I understand what he's saying for sure, Right, 563 00:32:00,480 --> 00:32:03,120 Speaker 18: I'm not particularly worried about it. Right, I think that 564 00:32:03,880 --> 00:32:05,400 Speaker 18: first of all, I think we'll do, first of all, 565 00:32:05,480 --> 00:32:08,640 Speaker 18: all all the Israeli targets. By the way, you can, 566 00:32:08,840 --> 00:32:12,040 Speaker 18: you can rest assured they're they're being clear to the 567 00:32:12,160 --> 00:32:15,840 Speaker 18: US military. But I think we're also gonna whatever's been hit, 568 00:32:15,880 --> 00:32:17,880 Speaker 18: we're going to rebuild, no question about it. 569 00:32:17,920 --> 00:32:19,800 Speaker 10: If the regime is flip, that is right. 570 00:32:19,840 --> 00:32:21,720 Speaker 18: So if they're not flip, obviously we want them as 571 00:32:21,760 --> 00:32:23,560 Speaker 18: crippled as possible. So I think you want to hit 572 00:32:23,600 --> 00:32:30,120 Speaker 18: those targets, then the day we're gonna rebuild them. Anyways, Look, ultimately, 573 00:32:30,120 --> 00:32:31,960 Speaker 18: but you have to look at what the effect has been. 574 00:32:32,000 --> 00:32:34,400 Speaker 10: What was the cause and effect and the effect has been. 575 00:32:34,480 --> 00:32:36,920 Speaker 18: Yeah, oil prices had gone up, and I don't think 576 00:32:37,080 --> 00:32:41,200 Speaker 18: Trump and anybody should should kind of say, hey, it's 577 00:32:41,240 --> 00:32:43,600 Speaker 18: no big deal. Now it's it's not nothing, right, it 578 00:32:43,640 --> 00:32:46,560 Speaker 18: hurts American taxpayers and their pocketbooks. That's important because you 579 00:32:46,600 --> 00:32:49,000 Speaker 18: want support American support. 580 00:32:48,640 --> 00:32:49,120 Speaker 10: For the war. 581 00:32:49,960 --> 00:32:53,200 Speaker 18: But ultimately oil is is now down under one hundred bucks. 582 00:32:53,240 --> 00:32:55,560 Speaker 18: That's a twenty five percent increase where it was prior 583 00:32:55,560 --> 00:32:59,040 Speaker 18: to the war. Just some context, the second Golf War 584 00:32:59,560 --> 00:33:03,360 Speaker 18: prices spiked seventy five percent, and in the First Golf 585 00:33:03,400 --> 00:33:05,680 Speaker 18: War price spiked one hundred and fifty percent. 586 00:33:05,720 --> 00:33:07,200 Speaker 10: There's Look, these. 587 00:33:07,000 --> 00:33:10,320 Speaker 18: Calculations are made prior to this attack, no question about it. 588 00:33:10,440 --> 00:33:12,479 Speaker 18: And we're the reason why prices haven't spiked is art 589 00:33:12,560 --> 00:33:13,640 Speaker 18: because for a run reasons. 590 00:33:13,680 --> 00:33:14,680 Speaker 10: First of all, we have a. 591 00:33:14,720 --> 00:33:18,440 Speaker 18: Far more diversified We don't depend on the Middle East 592 00:33:18,480 --> 00:33:21,160 Speaker 18: like we did before. It's far more diversified, fifty percent 593 00:33:21,280 --> 00:33:25,280 Speaker 18: larger production in general since then, the US supplying the 594 00:33:25,320 --> 00:33:27,560 Speaker 18: world is one of the main reasons behind it. And 595 00:33:27,600 --> 00:33:30,880 Speaker 18: by the way, going back to China, they're the ones 596 00:33:30,880 --> 00:33:33,120 Speaker 18: who are affected most by this, to be honest, right, 597 00:33:33,160 --> 00:33:37,080 Speaker 18: because China is the number one recipient of oil not 598 00:33:37,120 --> 00:33:39,280 Speaker 18: just from Iran but from the Strait of Hormuz. Or 599 00:33:39,400 --> 00:33:43,560 Speaker 18: should I call the straight up America and number two India. 600 00:33:44,440 --> 00:33:46,960 Speaker 18: China's three times more dependent on the straight of. 601 00:33:47,000 --> 00:33:48,040 Speaker 10: Hormves than India. 602 00:33:48,120 --> 00:33:50,200 Speaker 18: All that oil, none of the ghost to the west right, 603 00:33:50,240 --> 00:33:52,920 Speaker 18: the west is actually dependent mostly on the US, believe 604 00:33:52,920 --> 00:33:56,360 Speaker 18: it or not, the European number one oil suppliers America 605 00:33:56,480 --> 00:34:00,320 Speaker 18: thankfully so it's mostly Asian providers. But yeah, look, I 606 00:34:00,400 --> 00:34:02,400 Speaker 18: think that these calculus are made, and I think the 607 00:34:02,760 --> 00:34:05,760 Speaker 18: old disruption, as far as they are, far less than 608 00:34:05,800 --> 00:34:06,640 Speaker 18: we see in the past. 609 00:34:07,360 --> 00:34:09,520 Speaker 3: Okay, well, let's hope it doesn't get a lot worse 610 00:34:09,920 --> 00:34:12,279 Speaker 3: or fuel prices are going up a lot here in 611 00:34:12,280 --> 00:34:14,920 Speaker 3: Australia too, of course. Now, Army, I want to get 612 00:34:14,960 --> 00:34:19,640 Speaker 3: your reaction to the Democrat opposition to Trump's Save America Act. 613 00:34:20,000 --> 00:34:22,640 Speaker 3: Let's take a look at what Senate Minority Leader Chuck 614 00:34:22,680 --> 00:34:23,680 Speaker 3: Schumer had to say. 615 00:34:24,480 --> 00:34:29,920 Speaker 19: It makes it. It allows Ice to kick tens of 616 00:34:29,960 --> 00:34:31,279 Speaker 19: billions of people. 617 00:34:31,360 --> 00:34:34,359 Speaker 10: Off the rolls, off the rolls. 618 00:34:34,560 --> 00:34:37,080 Speaker 19: And they don't tell them until election. Dan, you show 619 00:34:37,120 --> 00:34:40,000 Speaker 19: them and you say you're not registered anymore. You're not 620 00:34:40,120 --> 00:34:42,680 Speaker 19: registered here, You're not on the rolls. 621 00:34:43,880 --> 00:34:47,520 Speaker 3: And White House Press Secretary Caroline Levitt was forced to 622 00:34:47,800 --> 00:34:52,480 Speaker 3: debunk a claim by the Democrats that married women wouldn't 623 00:34:52,480 --> 00:34:54,719 Speaker 3: be able to vote under the Act. 624 00:34:55,080 --> 00:34:57,319 Speaker 20: Of the Democrats who have created this myth, and it 625 00:34:57,360 --> 00:35:01,239 Speaker 20: has been perpetuated, unfortunately by any in the mainstream media. 626 00:35:01,400 --> 00:35:04,120 Speaker 20: Let me be very clear, the Save America Act does 627 00:35:04,160 --> 00:35:08,040 Speaker 20: not prohibit anyone from voting, with the exception of illegal aliens. 628 00:35:08,320 --> 00:35:11,600 Speaker 20: And the greatest way to disenfranchise American citizens from voting 629 00:35:11,600 --> 00:35:14,800 Speaker 20: in American elections is to allow legal aliens to vote, 630 00:35:14,840 --> 00:35:16,520 Speaker 20: which is what Democrats want to do. 631 00:35:17,200 --> 00:35:19,920 Speaker 3: I mean, I mean all of this in opposition to 632 00:35:20,040 --> 00:35:21,000 Speaker 3: voter id. 633 00:35:23,160 --> 00:35:25,200 Speaker 10: Yeah, I mean, it's so interesting. 634 00:35:25,560 --> 00:35:29,000 Speaker 18: They continue to take such weird positions, right, they continue 635 00:35:29,000 --> 00:35:32,800 Speaker 18: to take the wrong side of eighty twenty positions, and 636 00:35:32,840 --> 00:35:37,960 Speaker 18: it's it's confounding. No, they don't really care about it 637 00:35:38,040 --> 00:35:41,960 Speaker 18: because they want as many people to vote who they 638 00:35:42,000 --> 00:35:45,640 Speaker 18: think will vote for them, despite what the laws may allow. 639 00:35:45,880 --> 00:35:49,520 Speaker 18: Laws voter laws be dead, they don't care. Look, you know, 640 00:35:49,840 --> 00:35:52,720 Speaker 18: one of my most not one of my most famous 641 00:35:52,800 --> 00:35:55,399 Speaker 18: video was a voter idevideo I did that's hit over 642 00:35:55,440 --> 00:35:58,640 Speaker 18: a billion views, and it's really because it really speaks 643 00:35:58,640 --> 00:36:00,719 Speaker 18: this issue. And you know, but I haven't said a 644 00:36:00,719 --> 00:36:03,000 Speaker 18: lot with the reason why I made that particular video 645 00:36:03,480 --> 00:36:07,640 Speaker 18: was because my dad had died about six months before 646 00:36:07,680 --> 00:36:09,920 Speaker 18: I went to vote. This won election in Los Angeles, 647 00:36:10,200 --> 00:36:12,759 Speaker 18: and when I went to vote, his name was still 648 00:36:12,760 --> 00:36:14,680 Speaker 18: in the voter rules, which is not bizarre. 649 00:36:15,120 --> 00:36:16,680 Speaker 10: But what was bizarre was that you. 650 00:36:16,600 --> 00:36:18,960 Speaker 18: Have a little name and his name was checked and 651 00:36:19,040 --> 00:36:21,360 Speaker 18: somebody had voted for him. And I said to the 652 00:36:21,400 --> 00:36:23,720 Speaker 18: guy there, I said, somebody voted for my dad. 653 00:36:23,800 --> 00:36:26,040 Speaker 10: He is dead. He goes, I don't know. I just asked. 654 00:36:26,080 --> 00:36:28,400 Speaker 18: They gave me the name and the address, and I 655 00:36:28,520 --> 00:36:30,000 Speaker 18: just let them vote. They don't have to show any 656 00:36:30,080 --> 00:36:32,120 Speaker 18: kind of ida. I took a picture of that and 657 00:36:32,160 --> 00:36:34,200 Speaker 18: I sent the California Board of Elections, I go, here 658 00:36:34,280 --> 00:36:37,080 Speaker 18: is a demonstrable clear voting from us. 659 00:36:37,280 --> 00:36:41,239 Speaker 10: They never even got back to me. They don't care. 660 00:36:41,760 --> 00:36:44,839 Speaker 3: That is astonishing. I will have to catch up on 661 00:36:44,840 --> 00:36:48,399 Speaker 3: that video because that is crazy stuff. I don't see 662 00:36:48,400 --> 00:36:50,520 Speaker 3: why little makers. Well I do understand it. I can 663 00:36:50,560 --> 00:36:52,840 Speaker 3: understand why little makers on the left want to allow 664 00:36:52,920 --> 00:36:56,040 Speaker 3: people who might be illegal aliens to vote because they're 665 00:36:56,080 --> 00:36:58,360 Speaker 3: more likely to vote for them, But it still boggles 666 00:36:58,400 --> 00:37:02,080 Speaker 3: the mind. From over here in Australia, Army CNN let's 667 00:37:02,080 --> 00:37:04,600 Speaker 3: talk about them, because they've come under fire for spinning 668 00:37:04,640 --> 00:37:08,640 Speaker 3: the ISIS inspired attempted bombing out the front of the 669 00:37:08,680 --> 00:37:11,960 Speaker 3: New York Mayor's residence into some kind of human interest 670 00:37:12,120 --> 00:37:16,520 Speaker 3: color story. In a questionable post on x, the network wrote, 671 00:37:16,800 --> 00:37:21,240 Speaker 3: two Pennsylvania teenagers crossed into New York City Saturday morning 672 00:37:21,320 --> 00:37:24,239 Speaker 3: for what could have been a normal day, enjoying the 673 00:37:24,280 --> 00:37:27,960 Speaker 3: city during abnormally warm weather, But in less than an 674 00:37:28,000 --> 00:37:31,239 Speaker 3: hour of their lives would drastically change, as the pair 675 00:37:31,280 --> 00:37:36,120 Speaker 3: would be arrested foot throwing homemade bombs during an anti 676 00:37:36,280 --> 00:37:40,080 Speaker 3: Muslim protest outside of Mayor's or on Mum Danny's home. 677 00:37:40,719 --> 00:37:43,720 Speaker 3: I mean even talking about just it was an anti 678 00:37:43,760 --> 00:37:47,600 Speaker 3: Muslim protest, not the fact that these two were suspected 679 00:37:47,640 --> 00:37:51,360 Speaker 3: of doing it in the name of ISIS, according to police. 680 00:37:51,880 --> 00:37:55,160 Speaker 3: CNN has since deleted the post and issued an apolished 681 00:37:55,160 --> 00:37:58,040 Speaker 3: a bit. Truly, this is beyond parad isn't it. 682 00:37:59,600 --> 00:38:03,200 Speaker 18: No, it's bizarre, but it's such obviously fascinating insight. 683 00:38:03,280 --> 00:38:03,680 Speaker 3: Doesn't matter. 684 00:38:03,719 --> 00:38:05,320 Speaker 10: They deleted it because this is what they were thinking. 685 00:38:05,880 --> 00:38:08,840 Speaker 18: They rely deleted because the backlash, But such a fascinating 686 00:38:08,880 --> 00:38:11,480 Speaker 18: insight into the legacy media and how they deal with 687 00:38:11,520 --> 00:38:17,120 Speaker 18: these issues. Right, Look, this is not crazy, surprising and surprising. 688 00:38:17,200 --> 00:38:19,680 Speaker 10: Unfortunately, I did a little. 689 00:38:19,440 --> 00:38:21,480 Speaker 18: Bit of an analysis and I fed this in the 690 00:38:21,600 --> 00:38:25,080 Speaker 18: three different AI models, and what they came up with 691 00:38:25,320 --> 00:38:28,280 Speaker 18: was that there's been three in the last twenty four hours, 692 00:38:28,320 --> 00:38:31,799 Speaker 18: three times as much coverage on the civilian deaths in 693 00:38:31,840 --> 00:38:35,440 Speaker 18: Iran and there has been on an ISIS attack here 694 00:38:35,760 --> 00:38:39,880 Speaker 18: in the United States. It's absolutely incredible on what the 695 00:38:39,920 --> 00:38:42,680 Speaker 18: priorities are. And they're doing that obviously because they want 696 00:38:42,760 --> 00:38:45,839 Speaker 18: to make this war look like some evil, terrible war 697 00:38:45,880 --> 00:38:47,719 Speaker 18: where civilians are being murdered. By the way, this for 698 00:38:47,880 --> 00:38:50,799 Speaker 18: some context, CNN, just so you know, Yes, there have 699 00:38:50,800 --> 00:38:53,480 Speaker 18: been a little under two thousand Ryan civilians who have 700 00:38:53,480 --> 00:38:56,920 Speaker 18: been killed, and that's awful, right obviously, but some context, 701 00:38:57,160 --> 00:39:01,279 Speaker 18: you're talking about roll from between fifteen and already thousand 702 00:39:01,800 --> 00:39:04,040 Speaker 18: bombs that have been dropped in Iran. 703 00:39:04,120 --> 00:39:05,040 Speaker 10: Talk about precision. 704 00:39:05,360 --> 00:39:08,319 Speaker 18: To have two thousands million deaths with that kind of 705 00:39:08,360 --> 00:39:12,279 Speaker 18: heavenly weaponry being dropped me around, shows you how much 706 00:39:12,320 --> 00:39:14,520 Speaker 18: the US military and Israel cares. 707 00:39:14,640 --> 00:39:16,600 Speaker 10: About trying not to hit civilian deaths. 708 00:39:16,800 --> 00:39:19,600 Speaker 18: That to be the article, not the article saying, look, 709 00:39:19,600 --> 00:39:21,600 Speaker 18: how my civilian deaths are and by the way, ignoring 710 00:39:21,640 --> 00:39:24,239 Speaker 18: pretty much the Ice attacks, it just gives you a 711 00:39:24,280 --> 00:39:25,920 Speaker 18: sense of the priorities of the US media. 712 00:39:26,480 --> 00:39:29,040 Speaker 3: It was exactly the same we've covered to the Gaza 713 00:39:29,080 --> 00:39:31,520 Speaker 3: conflict as well, wasn't it, And the amount of civilian 714 00:39:31,560 --> 00:39:34,759 Speaker 3: deaths compared to the precision of the attacks. But look, 715 00:39:34,960 --> 00:39:37,440 Speaker 3: let's stay on the topic of the New York mayors 716 00:39:37,440 --> 00:39:41,040 Speaker 3: are and mum Danny because he sparked outrage after posting 717 00:39:41,080 --> 00:39:45,680 Speaker 3: a photo of himself hosting Mahmoud Khalil at Gracie Mansion, 718 00:39:45,840 --> 00:39:46,840 Speaker 3: the mayor's residence. 719 00:39:46,880 --> 00:39:47,080 Speaker 17: Now. 720 00:39:47,200 --> 00:39:51,480 Speaker 3: Khalil is one of America's most prominent anti Israel activists, 721 00:39:51,600 --> 00:39:56,200 Speaker 3: and he's currently facing deportation over claims that he's a 722 00:39:56,480 --> 00:40:01,600 Speaker 3: mass supporter. Mum Danny captioned the photo for Mahmoud Khalil. 723 00:40:01,640 --> 00:40:05,200 Speaker 3: This past year has been marked by profound hardshipt and 724 00:40:05,239 --> 00:40:09,800 Speaker 3: by profound courage. Rama and I were honored to welcome Mahmood, 725 00:40:10,200 --> 00:40:13,320 Speaker 3: Nora and their son Dean to Gracie Mansion to break 726 00:40:13,320 --> 00:40:16,360 Speaker 3: our fast together. Mamood is a New Yorker and he 727 00:40:16,480 --> 00:40:19,719 Speaker 3: belongs in New York City and Army. This comes after 728 00:40:19,800 --> 00:40:22,360 Speaker 3: mum Donnie's wife was exposed for liking a number of 729 00:40:22,400 --> 00:40:27,240 Speaker 3: social media posts celebrating Hamas's massacre of Jews in Israel 730 00:40:27,280 --> 00:40:29,719 Speaker 3: on October seven. I got to say, this all just 731 00:40:29,760 --> 00:40:32,919 Speaker 3: makes me feel sick and sick for New Yorkers who 732 00:40:32,960 --> 00:40:34,320 Speaker 3: have this guy as their leader. 733 00:40:35,600 --> 00:40:35,839 Speaker 10: Yeah. 734 00:40:35,880 --> 00:40:38,000 Speaker 18: Well, mum Donney's wife is certainly a very sick woman, 735 00:40:38,040 --> 00:40:39,120 Speaker 18: there's no question about that. 736 00:40:39,400 --> 00:40:41,759 Speaker 10: But this is all tracks, right, doesn't it. I mean, 737 00:40:41,800 --> 00:40:43,000 Speaker 10: you're talking about mum. 738 00:40:42,960 --> 00:40:47,040 Speaker 18: Danni who uh, after the an Ices attack in his city, right, 739 00:40:47,239 --> 00:40:52,280 Speaker 18: not far from where he's lived, spent the time initially 740 00:40:52,440 --> 00:40:55,919 Speaker 18: talking about how terrible it was about the protesters, right, 741 00:40:55,920 --> 00:40:59,640 Speaker 18: and not spending time talking about these Ice inspired attacks 742 00:40:59,640 --> 00:41:00,480 Speaker 18: and his the city. 743 00:41:00,640 --> 00:41:01,240 Speaker 10: This tracks. 744 00:41:01,480 --> 00:41:05,239 Speaker 18: This is what globalized the Intifada really means. When you 745 00:41:05,320 --> 00:41:09,360 Speaker 18: have Intifadas and Jihada supporters, you're not just vocally supporting 746 00:41:09,360 --> 00:41:12,080 Speaker 18: them like he has done obviously and his wife does 747 00:41:12,160 --> 00:41:16,120 Speaker 18: over and over again.

Yeah. 750 00:41:20,360 --> 00:41:23,720 Speaker 18: I wonder if any of Mamdani supporters will give them pause. 751 00:41:24,480 --> 00:41:25,040 Speaker 10: Probably not. 752 00:41:25,239 --> 00:41:29,000 Speaker 18: This is probably exactly what they voted for, right, globalized 753 00:41:29,040 --> 00:41:32,120 Speaker 18: INTIFA is exactly what it looks like. So yeah, I 754 00:41:32,400 --> 00:41:34,680 Speaker 18: think this kind of tracks of what this guy is, 755 00:41:34,840 --> 00:41:38,880 Speaker 18: what he stands for, what he supports. And I'm sorry, guys, 756 00:41:38,960 --> 00:41:40,439 Speaker 18: this is what you voted for us, what you get. 757 00:41:40,600 --> 00:41:42,759 Speaker 3: That's true too. I mean he did show who he 758 00:41:42,920 --> 00:41:45,359 Speaker 3: was during the campaign as well and before that. So 759 00:41:45,560 --> 00:41:48,279 Speaker 3: Amy Horowitz, thank you so much for your time. Appreciate it. 760 00:41:48,920 --> 00:41:49,560 Speaker 10: It was a pleasure. 761 00:41:50,040 --> 00:41:53,600 Speaker 3: After the break, Woopy Goldberg claims on The View, Trump 762 00:41:53,800 --> 00:41:56,920 Speaker 3: started the war in Iran to distract from the Epstein 763 00:41:57,040 --> 00:42:01,560 Speaker 3: Files and Nancy Guffrie's disappearance. I'll discuss that with Alex 764 00:42:01,600 --> 00:42:15,720 Speaker 3: Stein next. Welcome back. Let's bring in us comedian Alex Stein. Now, Alex, 765 00:42:15,800 --> 00:42:18,040 Speaker 3: good to see you. Let's start with the ladies of 766 00:42:18,080 --> 00:42:20,839 Speaker 3: the far left talk fest that is The View. Co 767 00:42:20,960 --> 00:42:24,799 Speaker 3: host Woopy Goldberg has alleged Donald Trump started the war 768 00:42:24,800 --> 00:42:28,280 Speaker 3: in Iran to distract the public from the Nancy Guthrie 769 00:42:28,320 --> 00:42:31,120 Speaker 3: disappearance and the Epstein Files. Take a look. 770 00:42:31,440 --> 00:42:34,640 Speaker 16: Every day is something new, and it's you know, I 771 00:42:34,680 --> 00:42:38,960 Speaker 16: was thinking about it yesterday because I thought, well, okay, 772 00:42:39,719 --> 00:42:42,919 Speaker 16: why haven't we been talking about Savannah Guthrie and what's 773 00:42:42,960 --> 00:42:46,200 Speaker 16: going on. Then why haven't we not been taught? Why 774 00:42:46,280 --> 00:42:49,600 Speaker 16: have we not been talking about the Epstein files, because 775 00:42:49,600 --> 00:42:54,759 Speaker 16: that's still there. This has meant to get us so 776 00:42:55,000 --> 00:42:58,120 Speaker 16: worked up that we are unable to see anything out. 777 00:42:58,920 --> 00:43:02,360 Speaker 3: I mean, Alex, I've heard of the Epstein conspiracies around 778 00:43:02,400 --> 00:43:05,640 Speaker 3: Trump which have had no basis, but I haven't heard 779 00:43:05,719 --> 00:43:09,120 Speaker 3: him being linked to Nancy Guthrie's disappearance. This is real 780 00:43:10,280 --> 00:43:12,560 Speaker 3: elite conspiracy theory level here. 781 00:43:14,160 --> 00:43:15,840 Speaker 21: No, I mean, it's ridiculous because if we want to 782 00:43:15,840 --> 00:43:20,360 Speaker 21: get into conspiracies and the recent Jevery Epstein leagues, Woopy 783 00:43:20,360 --> 00:43:23,719 Speaker 21: Goldberg was asking to use Jeffy Epstein's private jet to 784 00:43:23,719 --> 00:43:25,920 Speaker 21: go to a charity event. So if anybody you know, 785 00:43:26,000 --> 00:43:27,879 Speaker 21: we shouldn't be talking about the Epstein files, there should 786 00:43:27,880 --> 00:43:30,120 Speaker 21: be Whoopi Goldberg that should be hiding it. And let's 787 00:43:30,120 --> 00:43:32,279 Speaker 21: be real, a war is going to take all of 788 00:43:32,280 --> 00:43:35,400 Speaker 21: our attention because it's a global matter. So it just 789 00:43:35,440 --> 00:43:37,640 Speaker 21: sounds very disingenuous, and it seems like she wants to 790 00:43:37,680 --> 00:43:40,920 Speaker 21: keep on talking about just slop, you know, propaganda, and 791 00:43:41,000 --> 00:43:43,680 Speaker 21: let's be real again. I hate to say it, but 792 00:43:43,719 --> 00:43:45,920 Speaker 21: I don't think Nancy guthrough is probably still with us, 793 00:43:45,920 --> 00:43:48,120 Speaker 21: and I hope I'm wrong, but she's eighty four years old. 794 00:43:48,160 --> 00:43:50,879 Speaker 21: She was kidnapped without any of her medication, and it's 795 00:43:50,880 --> 00:43:53,600 Speaker 21: a sad reality. But you know, I just think it's 796 00:43:53,640 --> 00:43:55,640 Speaker 21: a you know, it's a tough situation. But I think 797 00:43:55,640 --> 00:43:57,200 Speaker 21: the war should be our focus right now. 798 00:43:57,239 --> 00:44:00,319 Speaker 3: Yeah. Absolutely, And it is a very sad story. But 799 00:44:00,719 --> 00:44:03,600 Speaker 3: to suggest that he started a war to distract from 800 00:44:03,640 --> 00:44:08,480 Speaker 3: that is just so out there, Alex. Some Cubans are 801 00:44:08,520 --> 00:44:11,560 Speaker 3: now calling on Donald Trump to do for them what 802 00:44:11,719 --> 00:44:14,360 Speaker 3: he's done for Iranians, or what he is doing for 803 00:44:14,440 --> 00:44:18,160 Speaker 3: them and trying to get regime change, and what he 804 00:44:18,239 --> 00:44:22,400 Speaker 3: did for Venezuelan's facing a severe lack of food, electricity, 805 00:44:22,440 --> 00:44:25,600 Speaker 3: and medical care, they are pleading with the President to 806 00:44:25,719 --> 00:44:31,600 Speaker 3: liberate them. To Cuban dissident pedro Quiala comentara, look, I'm 807 00:44:31,600 --> 00:44:33,440 Speaker 3: going to butcher his name. I'm not even gonna try it. 808 00:44:33,760 --> 00:44:36,200 Speaker 3: He's a Cuban dissident, and he's told the New York 809 00:44:36,239 --> 00:44:39,080 Speaker 3: Post I'm not a religious person, but I pray to 810 00:44:39,120 --> 00:44:43,560 Speaker 3: God for Donald Trump. He is our only hope for freedom, Alex. 811 00:44:43,680 --> 00:44:46,520 Speaker 3: Who would have thought that the man that the left 812 00:44:46,719 --> 00:44:50,600 Speaker 3: demonized as a racist bigot would be seen as a 813 00:44:50,640 --> 00:44:53,640 Speaker 3: figure of hope for marginalized people around the world. 814 00:44:55,239 --> 00:44:57,280 Speaker 21: Well, you know, I hope Trump does help about Cuba. 815 00:44:57,320 --> 00:44:59,239 Speaker 21: You know, I love big booty Latinas, and if that 816 00:44:59,239 --> 00:45:01,040 Speaker 21: needs more, bigooty Latinas are going to be here on 817 00:45:01,080 --> 00:45:03,640 Speaker 21: American soil, I'm okay with it. And you know, let's 818 00:45:03,640 --> 00:45:07,000 Speaker 21: be real. The people of Cuba, they have been held 819 00:45:07,040 --> 00:45:09,319 Speaker 21: back by their leadership. And you know, I don't know 820 00:45:09,360 --> 00:45:11,120 Speaker 21: if we go there and drop bombs, I hope it 821 00:45:11,120 --> 00:45:13,080 Speaker 21: would be more like Venezuela, where it could just be 822 00:45:13,200 --> 00:45:15,560 Speaker 21: in and out type situation. But really, at the end 823 00:45:15,560 --> 00:45:18,239 Speaker 21: of the day, these people are suffering and they any 824 00:45:18,360 --> 00:45:20,120 Speaker 21: leadership that's going to help them out. I think Donald 825 00:45:20,120 --> 00:45:21,520 Speaker 21: Trump is probably their only hope. 826 00:45:22,719 --> 00:45:25,719 Speaker 3: We'll seem that way for some of them. Let's turn 827 00:45:25,760 --> 00:45:29,359 Speaker 3: our attention now to the ongoing anti ICE protests, and 828 00:45:29,440 --> 00:45:32,840 Speaker 3: a warning some of graphic footage is coming up. A 829 00:45:32,920 --> 00:45:37,520 Speaker 3: protester accidentally lit himself on fire during a Portland rally 830 00:45:37,840 --> 00:45:41,560 Speaker 3: while trying to set alight an American flag, as onlookers 831 00:45:41,680 --> 00:45:45,759 Speaker 3: branded him an idiot alex. I suppose some people will 832 00:45:45,800 --> 00:45:50,680 Speaker 3: still find a way to blame Ice for this too, though, Well. 833 00:45:50,520 --> 00:45:53,200 Speaker 21: You know, this to me is the perfect example of 834 00:45:53,239 --> 00:45:56,200 Speaker 21: fool around and find out And that guy wanted to 835 00:45:56,239 --> 00:45:58,399 Speaker 21: burn the flag and the flag got him back. So 836 00:45:58,719 --> 00:46:01,479 Speaker 21: you know, really it's poetic justice in my point of view. 837 00:46:01,520 --> 00:46:03,960 Speaker 21: And I hope the guy's okay. I don't want anybody 838 00:46:03,960 --> 00:46:06,120 Speaker 21: to get heard, but you know, you play with fires, 839 00:46:06,160 --> 00:46:07,240 Speaker 21: sometimes you're going to get burned. 840 00:46:07,440 --> 00:46:10,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, there's a reason that saying exists, isn't there? And 841 00:46:10,360 --> 00:46:12,160 Speaker 3: I think he was okay in the end. I think 842 00:46:12,200 --> 00:46:16,400 Speaker 3: he was filmed walking off, so that is thankful at least. 843 00:46:16,680 --> 00:46:18,960 Speaker 3: Before you go, Alex, I wanted to get your thoughts 844 00:46:18,960 --> 00:46:21,800 Speaker 3: on this report in the Wall Street Journal. Donald Trump 845 00:46:22,200 --> 00:46:25,440 Speaker 3: is said to have asked guests during a recent dinner 846 00:46:25,480 --> 00:46:29,640 Speaker 3: at Mara Lago whether JD. Vance or Marco Rubio should 847 00:46:29,680 --> 00:46:34,239 Speaker 3: run in twenty twenty eight, and the guests overwhelmingly applauded 848 00:46:34,440 --> 00:46:38,240 Speaker 3: for Rubio. Does that surprise you? 849 00:46:38,239 --> 00:46:38,440 Speaker 19: You know? 850 00:46:38,800 --> 00:46:41,120 Speaker 21: And not really. I think Rubio has actually done pretty 851 00:46:41,120 --> 00:46:43,000 Speaker 21: good in his leadership role. But you know what really 852 00:46:43,080 --> 00:46:45,520 Speaker 21: makes me sad, it's a six month anniversary of Charlie 853 00:46:45,560 --> 00:46:48,160 Speaker 21: Kirk's assassination, and I think Charlie Kirk would have been 854 00:46:48,160 --> 00:46:50,640 Speaker 21: the best candidate for president. And I know that he 855 00:46:50,680 --> 00:46:52,960 Speaker 21: was young, but you know, he was really holding together 856 00:46:53,040 --> 00:46:56,040 Speaker 21: the whole Conservative New movement and the fact that he's gone, 857 00:46:56,160 --> 00:46:58,879 Speaker 21: it just feels like there's a huge divide. So, yeah, 858 00:46:58,880 --> 00:47:01,400 Speaker 21: I do think Rubio is probably you know, he's in 859 00:47:01,480 --> 00:47:03,719 Speaker 21: Calshi or all those betting sites. I think he's the 860 00:47:03,880 --> 00:47:06,680 Speaker 21: you know, he's about to usurp fans when it comes 861 00:47:06,719 --> 00:47:08,640 Speaker 21: to you know, the betting market. So I think he 862 00:47:08,680 --> 00:47:11,439 Speaker 21: has a great chance. But I just, you know, it 863 00:47:11,560 --> 00:47:14,239 Speaker 21: kills me and makes me sick that we just don't 864 00:47:14,280 --> 00:47:15,719 Speaker 21: have Charlie Kirk here at this any point. 865 00:47:16,360 --> 00:47:20,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, that was one tragic event that we spoke you 866 00:47:20,760 --> 00:47:23,560 Speaker 3: and I afterwards. I know he was a friend of 867 00:47:23,600 --> 00:47:29,240 Speaker 3: yours as well, and it's been you know, a hard time, 868 00:47:29,440 --> 00:47:33,120 Speaker 3: especially within the MAGA movement since he left. And this 869 00:47:33,200 --> 00:47:36,200 Speaker 3: is a question without notice really, Alex, but we've seen 870 00:47:36,239 --> 00:47:39,160 Speaker 3: this division in the MAGA movement where that there's been 871 00:47:39,200 --> 00:47:45,200 Speaker 3: these attacks on Charlie Kirk's widow, Erica, from people like 872 00:47:45,480 --> 00:47:50,120 Speaker 3: Candice Owens and a lot of people using the tragedy 873 00:47:50,160 --> 00:47:54,040 Speaker 3: of his death to cause it so divide within the party. 874 00:47:54,200 --> 00:47:56,640 Speaker 3: How do you see what's happening at the moment. 875 00:47:58,040 --> 00:47:59,320 Speaker 21: Well, it's it's horrible. 876 00:47:59,360 --> 00:48:00,319 Speaker 8: I mean, it really is. 877 00:48:00,360 --> 00:48:03,120 Speaker 21: And Canis Owens, you know, I've said this on this program. 878 00:48:03,280 --> 00:48:06,560 Speaker 21: You know, a lot of her attention towards you know, 879 00:48:06,719 --> 00:48:09,520 Speaker 21: Erica is basically because Canas probably didn't want to be 880 00:48:09,520 --> 00:48:11,640 Speaker 21: the CEO. But I think that Cannas wants to be 881 00:48:11,680 --> 00:48:13,400 Speaker 21: the face of Turning Point, or wanted to be the 882 00:48:13,440 --> 00:48:15,759 Speaker 21: face of Turning Point, and she sees Erica being the 883 00:48:15,760 --> 00:48:17,520 Speaker 21: face of it. And I think a lot of it 884 00:48:17,560 --> 00:48:19,759 Speaker 21: is jealousy. And I'm not trying to call you out, 885 00:48:19,760 --> 00:48:21,920 Speaker 21: but women can be very caddy to other women, and 886 00:48:21,920 --> 00:48:23,840 Speaker 21: I think this is a perfect example of another woman 887 00:48:23,880 --> 00:48:27,080 Speaker 21: attacking a woman when it's all unnecessary. Erica Kirk did 888 00:48:27,120 --> 00:48:30,960 Speaker 21: nothing wrong. Erica Kirk had no planning in her husband's death. 889 00:48:31,000 --> 00:48:33,920 Speaker 21: That's ridiculous. And I've seen the clips of Candace. I've 890 00:48:33,960 --> 00:48:37,839 Speaker 21: seen no evidence that would point to any involvement from 891 00:48:37,960 --> 00:48:39,600 Speaker 21: Erica Kirk. So it's ludicrous. 892 00:48:39,800 --> 00:48:40,399 Speaker 8: I hate it. 893 00:48:40,640 --> 00:48:42,919 Speaker 21: I don't think, you know, Candas should be censored. I'm 894 00:48:42,920 --> 00:48:46,279 Speaker 21: a First Amendment absolutist, free speech absolutist, but I just 895 00:48:46,280 --> 00:48:48,239 Speaker 21: don't like it for the movement. I think it's it's 896 00:48:48,280 --> 00:48:50,680 Speaker 21: going to kill the MAGA movement entirely if we don't, 897 00:48:50,760 --> 00:48:52,720 Speaker 21: you know, I guess come together somehow. 898 00:48:52,960 --> 00:48:56,480 Speaker 3: Well, it's just sad to see her with such a 899 00:48:56,560 --> 00:49:01,560 Speaker 3: huge following just perpetuate these conspiracy sees about someone who 900 00:49:01,600 --> 00:49:05,000 Speaker 3: is so loved and aggrieving. Widow, Alex Stein, thank you 901 00:49:05,040 --> 00:49:07,920 Speaker 3: so much for your time and your personal insights appreciated. 902 00:49:07,960 --> 00:49:11,400 Speaker 3: As always, that's it from me. Up next is Newsnight.
